The effective mass of the quasi-particles in the fermion-Chern-Simons description of the quantum Hall state at half-filling is computed for electron-electron interactions $V(r)\sim r^{x-2}$, for $0<x<3/2$, following the previous work of…
We develop a phenomenological description of the nu=5/2 quantum Hall state in which the Halperin-Lee-Read theory of the half-filled Landau level is combined with a p-wave pairing interaction between composite fermions (CFs). The…
We find that the work of Ichinose requires far too many quasiparticles. As a result too many parameters are introduced to fit the mass of a composite fermion (CF) and hence experimentally, it will not be possible to identify all of such…
We investigate the stability of spatially uniform solutions for the collisionless dynamics of a fermionic superfluid. We demonstrate that, if the system size is larger than the superfluid coherence length, the solution characterized by a…
Algorithmic progress in recent years made it possible to simulate QCD with Nf=2 flavours of O(a)-improved Wilson fermions at very light quark masses. We present the current results for baryon spectrum states, the nucleon axial coupling and…
In the article by M. G. Mustafa published in Phys. Rev. C {\bf 72}, 014905 (2005) the author has estimated the total energy loss of a charm quark and quenching of hadron spectra due to the collisional energy loss of energetic partons in an…
Despite the high overlap with the exact Coulomb ground state, the so-called Gaffnian state fails to describe the incompressibility at the 2/5 quantum Hall filling factor and consequently it was conjectured to be a quantum critical state. To…
We consider pairing of itinerant fermions in a metal near a quantum-critical point (QCP) towards some form of particle-hole order (nematic, spin-density-wave, charge-density-wave, etc). At a QCP, the dominant interaction between fermions…
Topological pairing of composite fermions has led to remarkable ideas, such as excitations obeying non-Abelian braid statistics and topological quantum computation. We construct a $p$-wave paired Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) wave…
Ultracold neutral bosons in a rapidly rotating atomic trap have been predicted to exhibit fractional quantum Hall-like states. We describe how the composite fermion theory, used in the description of the fractional quantum Hall effect for…
In a recent paper [Phys.Rev.Lett. 82, 3665 (1999)], magnetic field driven spin transitions in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states were reported, and in particular, at filling factors 2/3 and 2/5, weak features were observed at half…
Analyzing the effective conformal field theory for the parafermionic Hall states, corresponding to filling fractions nu_k=2+k/(kM+2), k=2,3,..., M odd, we show that the even k plateaux are expected to be more stable than their odd k…
Variational Monte Carlo calculations of the quasielectron and quasihole excitation energies in the fractional quantum Hall effect have been carried out at filling fractions $\nu=1/3$, 1/5, and 1/7. For the quasielectron both the trial wave…
We study adiabatic charge transfer in a superconducting Cooper pair pump, focusing on the influence of current measurement on coherence. We investigate the limit where the Josephson coupling energy $E_J$ between the various parts of the…
Fractional quantum Hall states at half-integer filling factors have been observed in many systems beyond the $5/2$ and $7/2$ plateaus in GaAs quantum wells. This includes bilayer states in GaAs, several half-integer plateaus in ZnO-based…
Pair-distribution functions g(r) of Laughlin quasielectrons (composite fermions in their second Landau level) are calculated in the fractional quantum Hall states at electron filling factors nu_e=4/11 and 3/8. A shoulder in g(r) is found,…
A pseudo su(1,1)-algebra is formulated as a possible deformation of the Cooper-pair in the su(2)-algebraic many-fermion system. With the aid of this algebra, it is possible to describe behavior of individual fermions which are generated as…
Most of the fractions observed to date belong to the sequences $\nu=n/(2pn\pm 1)$ and $\nu=1-n/(2pn\pm 1)$, $n$ and $p$ integers, understood as the familiar {\em integral} quantum Hall effect of composite fermions. These sequences fail to…
Even though composite fermions in the fractional quantum Hall liquid are well established, it is not yet known up to what energies they remain intact. We probe the high-energy spectrum of the 1/3 liquid directly by resonant inelastic light…
Cooper problem for interacting fermions is solved in a lattice. It is found that the binding energy of the Cooper problem can behave qualitatively differently from the gap parameter of the BCS theory and that pairs of non-zero center of…
